Feature Request: Different Bookmark Icons for Different Folders

[Zafaron]

Very useful plugin, the default Firefox bookmarks leave something to be desired. Not sure if it's possible, but would be useful to have some different icons you could assign to different bookmark folders. So you could have X number of icons together, press icon 1, bookmark goes to folder for icon 1, press icon 2 for folder 2, etc.

Could also have a button/dropdown to change icon groups from work/school/entertainment/whatever. So the bookmark folders for the different icons would change based on the group without having to re-enter the folders each time.

Hello and thank you! 🙂

First, let me say I really like the idea! Unfortunately, it would not be possible to add more icons as Firefox only allows one address bar icon (called page action) and toolbar icon (called browser action) per add-on, and Default Bookmark Folder is already using both. If you are interested, I mentioned this as well here: https://github.com/teddy-gustiaux/default-bookmark-folder/issues/47#issuecomment-493638016.

However, it would be possible to have a drop-drown menu when clicking the icon. This menu could display a list of folders previously selected in the add-on settings (such as "Folder 1", "Folder 2", and so on). Clicking on any of these folder names would result in the current page being quickly bookmarked in said folder. This would be made available as an option to replace the current default behavior of the icon.

That'd be great! Allowing different icons and colors would be a nice add on too.
